i am having trouble with all this. i am supposed to only trust myself
to identify citibank's web site? and what to i smoke to get that
knowledge? let's get real here.
with dane, i trust whoever runs dns for citibank to identify the cert
for citibank. this seems much more reasonable than other approaches,
though i admit to not having dived deeply into them all.
